* Even though it concludes with the reveal it's really just a nightmare, Mitch dreams of returning to Curly's burial spot one year to the day to let him know how much he's changed his life.
* The beginning of the movie [[EstablishingCharacterMoment establishing]] just how much Mitch's newfound optimism has improved his quality of life.
** As opposed to treating his mother's traditional "The night you were born" speech with tiredness like he did in the first movie, he and his wife treat it as an quaint idiosyncrasy and appreciate it as such.
** Norman is still very much a part of his life, even going jogging with him in the morning like one would do a pet dog.
* Glenn taking a bullet for Mitch, even knowing it would kill him. Afterwards, Mitch lets Glenn know he's proud of him, especially after all the personal growth he's gone through.
* Before they part ways, Duke thanks Mitch for being Curly's last friend before he died.
* In the end, Duke revealing to Mitch that he found his "one thing": [[WhatYouAreInTheDark integrity and honesty]]. He's dreamed of finding the legendary gold his whole life, and when our heroes came into the picture, he was planning to trick them to keep it all for himself. But as the journey progressed, he grew to realize [[CharacterDevelopment it would be wrong to betray their trust]]. So when he ''does'' find the gold himself, he didn't have the heart to hoard it. Instead, he does the honorable thing and lets Mitch know the truth.

Fortunately, it turned out to be benign, but his voice trails off as he says "That whole day was. . .", thus revealing how much he loves his wife and how terrified he was at the prospect of losing her.
